Father’s Day recipe ideas

Today is Father’s Day in the US, UK, and Canada. For many families the day will include outdoor cooking, meat on the grill, and picnic fare. If you are a procrastinator like me and are searching for last minute ideas, one place to look is Food Network, which has selected 35 pleasing Father’s Day dinner ideas. In addition to the standard burgers, steaks, and ribs, they are highlighting some vegetarian options and follow it all up with cake recipes for dessert.

Another option for a collection of recipe ideas is Food and Wine. Their collection is a smidge smaller at 27 recipes, and it features plenty of grilling inspiration with unique twists like Skillet brownies on the grill by Valerie Gordon, pictured above.

Of course, you can always browse the EYB Library, which has over 20,000 online recipes for grilling and barbecue. If you can’t find something to love in that collection, you are just not trying. The hardest part will be deciding on which recipe to try first.

    Due to some last minute guests arriving tomorrow, we are using today to prep for their visit, so we are celebrating next weekend. When I asked my husband what he wanted for dinner his reply was “anything with the yummy little potatoes!” meaning Ina’s Herbed New Potatoes from Barefoot in Paris, which has become one of his favorite foods. For the main dish he settled on trying Ina’s Mustard Roasted Fish which someone recently made and shared on the EYB Cookbook Club page and it looked delicious! I’ve stopped asking for dessert recommendations because the answer is always the same…ice cream! I’m making cheesecake ice cream from Sweet Cream and Sugar Cones with the strawberry ripple recipe from ATK. I’m just as excited about his dinner as he is!!
